Study Notes
- Variables are reserved memory locations to store values and space in memory.
- Java has two data types: primitive and reference/object.
Primitive Data Types
- These are the most basic data types in Java.
- Java supports eight primitive data types: byte, short, int, long, float, double, boolean, char.
Reference/Object Data Types
- These are created using defined constructors of the classes and are used to access objects.
- They are declared to be of a specific type that cannot be changed.
- Class objects and various types of array variables are reference data types.
- The default value of any reference variable is null.
- A reference variable refers to any object of the declared type or any compatible type.
- Examples: String, messagebox, applet, inputbox, HiLo
Java Literals
- A literal is a source code representation of a fixed value.
- They are represented directly in the code without computation.
- Example: int num = 10, char = ‘A’
Streams
- A stream is a sequence of objects that can be pipelined to produce a desired result.
- Streams support many kinds of data, including simple bytes, primitive data types, localized characters, and objects.
- Some streams simply pass on data while others manipulate and transform the data in useful ways.
- Streams take input from Collections, Arrays, or I/O channels.
- Streams do not change the original data structure, and only provide results as per the pipelined methods.
Conditional
- Conditional statements support decisions based on a condition; if the condition is met or "true", a code piece is executed.
The If-Then and If-Then-Else Statements
- The most basic flow control statement in Java is if-then.
- If something is true, then do something.
- It is a good choice for simple decisions.
